Last Time out For OSU

Oregon State competed last week at the 63rd Annual Western Intercollegiate and finished sixth as a team with a score of 888 (306-292-290). Junior Diego Velasquez stole the show with his second win of the 2008-09 season. He finished at even par with a final score of 210 (74-66-70).

Velasquez’s second win of the season marked the first time a Beaver has won two events in the same season since the 1999-2000 season when Anthony Arvidson won both the Northwest Classic and the Duck Invitational. It is only the fourth time it has happened in school history. Only Warren Vickers has won more than two events in the same season. Vickers won three events in the 1988-89 season
